The concept of a duo recording is not a new one. This project, that I have been conceptualizing for years, places the drums in constant dialogue with one other instrumentalist. The challenge now—to raise the drums from its traditional role of accompaniment, to that of partner to that other voice.

Excitement through spontaneity... and with the freedom of this environment comes the responsibility to shape the form of the composition. Communication and empathy create the thread from track to track that is the essence of the project. Empathy supported by the presence of longtime friends and musical colleagues... now collaborators. —Billy Jones, 2017
